|History=The Department of Clinical Veterinary Science in Langford is based in the property and grounds of Langford House, which was originally developed as a farming estate by Simon Hill in 1877. The building, despite having been built in the mid-Victorian era, features distinctly Georgian architecture, as does much of the old city of Bristol. The Langford estate remained in the hill family until it was purchased by the Commissioners of Crown Lands in 1944. In 1951, it was acquired by the University of Bristol to be developed as a veterinary field station, and since then has been the site of clinical training for many generations of veterinary students. The School of Preclinical Veterinary Science is housed in the building of the old Kingsdown Grammar School, on Southwell Street, Bristol. | |History=The Department of Clinical Veterinary Science in Langford is based in the property and grounds of Langford House, which was originally developed as a farming estate by Simon Hill in 1877.
